Good infrastructure, faculty, average hostel food, and hostel rooms.

Placements: I joined this college last year through the NEET special round. This college has a beautiful campus. The teachers and lecturers are well-trained professionals and doctors. The course is offered at 5.3 lacs for students under the management quota, and it varies for students joining here based on NEET rankings.

Infrastructure: The college has a wonderful infrastructure with a vast library, labs with all the required instruments, and smart classrooms with AC that can comfortably accommodate around 100 students. Each batch has around 100 students; these batches are further divided into 4 so that all students can be paid attention to by the faculty. All the labs are well maintained, with all the instruments required for each student, and lab faculty are present to help students with all the experiments along with the subject lecturers. The hostel is a well-maintained residential place for students, costing $90000 for non-AC rooms, including mess feels, and $140000 for AC rooms. All the rooms are two, sharing separate beds, tables, and cupboards. The college conducts many sports and events for students. They have a vast outdoor ground near the hostel for cricket and football, along with an indoor stadium for volleyball, throwball, badminton, table tennis, tennis, and many more. All the students have free consultation and treatment for any medical emergency; they only need to pay for the extra materials used, and pharmacy bills for the medicine are also provided at a low cost in the hospital. The mess provides us with breakfast along with coffee, tea, and milk from 7:00-9:00 in the morning, lunch from 12:30-2:00, and dinner from 7:30-10:00 with evening snacks and hot beverages, the same as for breakfast from 4:30-6:00.

Faculty: The teachers are well qualified and knowledgeable doctors/dentists and teach exceptionally well. The curriculum of the college helps students focus, work hard, and relax, not putting too much pressure on the students. The semester/sessional exams conducted are exams that required hard work, but almost all the students pass as the teachers encourage students to do well and support them.

Review of A.B. Shetty Memorial Institute of Dental Sciences.

Placements: In my class, there are a total of 100 students. In this college, there are only management quotas and NRI quotas. In BDS there are 4 years of learning and 1 year of internship. Since we are first years, we don't exactly know the previous percent of students who got internships for BDS in this college.

Infrastructure: There is university Wi-Fi. The facilities in the hostel are nice. There is free Wi-Fi in the hostel as well. Mess food is okay. For the first year girls, we got a new hostel that is in Uttar Bangalore. There are separate faculties for the hostel itself. There is a gym near the hostel. And sports and games are also available.

Faculty: The teachers are helpful, and they are friendly. There are 5-6 teachers in each subject to teach each topic to make us understand better. If we don't understand any topics, we can ask the teachers as many times as we want; they are willing to help us. Faculty members are nice.

Other: I was always interested in this course, BDS. This college is ranked 3rd among the dental colleges. Numerous patients come here.
