Elective time may be taken in any area of AP or CP as long as it is used in an educationally appropriate manner; for example, to further explore an interest in a specialty area of pathology, to gain additional experience in a specialty, or to work on a research project. Many residents use one or more months of elective time to prepare abstracts for meetings or complete research projects.
