    Q:   Are MDS placements at Manipal College of Dental Sciences, Mangalore good?
    A: 

    There are very few colleges according to me which can match the level of MCODS. Talking about MDS all the other departments are just amazing.

    OMFS is alright, it is only due to not being able to get a free hand which is of course a disadvantage of every private college. The dept as such is very well-guided.

    Ortho, Prostho, and Endo are flawless.

    Perio, Pedo and OMR are good too.

    According to me the Best dept of the college is Oral pathology.
