Good patients flow and can acquire good skills .
Placements: 100 students are studying in our batch. An internship is compulsory for a year in the same college. Salary will be provided by the institution. The lowest package received is 10000, and the highest is in Lacs. Many of the students who studied here got AIR top marks.
Infrastructure: The college and hospital are available in the same place. Library is available, and e-library is also available. Classrooms are provided with AC and smart boards. The hostel is provided with a fan, cupboard, and cot. Quality of food is okay. Sports and games are allowed but not much importance is given to it.
Faculty: Nearly five to six faculty members are available in each department. Teachers are available for asking doubts at any time and are approachable. It would be better if every faculty uses the available modern facilities. One exam per year and with not much difficulty. Pass percentage is nearly 99 percent.
Other: I chose this course due to lack of marks in NEET, and I'm satisfied with this course now.

It is India's premier dental institution offers hands-on learning with a high patient flow.
Placements: Basically, there is no campus placement in our college. Since there is a high patient flow and good ranking we can easily find a job compared to other colleges in South India. All the students get internships in the college itself with a decent stipend.
Infrastructure: The hostel is congested, they are constructing a new girl's hostel. By 2026, a new and good hostel will be provided by students. There is also some construction going on campus. The indoor games are available, and the food in the mess is good compared to other college hostels.
Faculty: Since the college is associated with Madras Medical College, it is helpful in academics. Faculty members and the lab facilities are good. Faculty members make us study. There are internals every month, and it is useful for university exams.
Other: Bachelor of Dental Surgery (BDS) is a good course if you are interested in dentistry, as it assures a high-paying job if you excel in this field. The campus life is not very good since this is a medical college, but there are a lot of fests and events.
