The only part that concerns me somewhat in the current setup for sanctioned APs is that you could not play through them with PFS sanctioned characters uninterrupted.
After reading the rules you simply don't gain enough XP from the previous sanctioned portion of the module to meet many of the following sanctioned portions. I will use the Rise of the Runelords rules for an example:
The sanctioned part of "Burnt Offerings" is for levels 3-5 and will provide enough XP to gain one level. Let us say you hold off and play it at the highest level (5) and you are now level 6. You qualify for the sanctioned portion of "The Skinsaw Murders" which is level 4-6. Again, you are maximum level for that portion and gain 1 level, putting you at level 7. But wait.. the third part, coming from "The Hook Mountain Massacre" is for levels 8-10, so you have to gain a full level elsewhere first before you can even begin playing it. Depending on what level you play that portion at you may need to gain between 1 and 3 levels before you qualify to play the next part. And, unless you wait until level 14 to start it, there will continue to be gaps where you need to gain levels from other sanctioned scenarios or modules before you can continue with the next part of the Adventure Path.
