Based on previous year trends, it has been observed that to attain a BDS seat in a government dental college, a candidate is required to score a minimum of 450 marks in NEET (subject to vary). A minimum of 50th percentile under general category for those who seek admissions in private dental colleges is a requirement.

Yes, candidates who are willing to get admitted to the undergraduate dental courses need to qualify NEET exam. The National Eligibility Cum Entrance Test (NEET) is the national application test for BDS admission. Students who enroll in the BDS course can pick from a variety of job options once they have completed the course. They may work for Medical Device Manufacturers, Pharmaceutical Firms, or Hospitals. Additionally, students have the option of opening their own Dental Office.
