BDS

Hi Nishar,

Pursuing a BDS at Army College of Dental Sciences (ACDS), Secunderabad, involves a significant financial commitment. The first-year fee is approximately INR 4.17 lakhs, which includes tuition, hostel, and a refundable security deposit. Subsequent years have slightly reduced fees. While the cost is substantial, ACDS offers quality education and facilities, making it a worthwhile investment for many.

Best regards.

While the primary focus in BDS colleges is on clinical training and dental education, many colleges offer preparatory courses or coaching for students aiming to improve their NEET scores. Saveetha Dental College and Meenakshi Ammal Dental College often have dedicated faculty who assist students in enhancing their academic performance.

Maulana Azad Institute of Dental Sciences BDS course admissions are based on NEET scores. Candidates who could not clear NEET must not worry. These students can apply again the next year. Candidates willing to get admission must take part in the Maulana Azad Institute of Dental Sciences admission process before the last date of application.

Yes, a candidate with a BDS degree from a non-Indian university can apply for MDS Prosthodontics in India, provided the degree is recognised by the Dental Council of India (DCI).

Once they pass the FDG exam, these candidates can apply for the MDS Prosthodontics programme through NEET MDS or respective state-level exams, depending on the institutions they wish to apply to. They are also required to meet all other eligibility criteria set by the institutions.
