Academic Advisement - Course Lists & Electives

We are setting up Academic Advisement and I'm creating the course lists for our MD program.

My questions are: 

How do I handle electives?  Do I create a separate course list?

Also, only a particular number of credits from electives are required, so do I include all the electives in the course list and put the credit limit elsewhere?

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.
