It is not easy to gain admission in MDS at the Army College of Dental Sciences; NEET MDS scores should be quite good for that as it is a highly competitive examination.
Seats are limited, and one has to depend on the performance in the entrance exam for admission.
Children of army personnel do get some reservation in a quota, but to secure a seat, one still has to perform well academically and score high in NEET MDS. In case, choices are made for some popular specializations, then the competition becomes tougher, but overall, it is quite feasible for the right contender.

Actually, the fee structure for MDS within the Army College of Dental Sciences is not found in the most circulated sources for MDS. The fee structures in most private colleges for MDS are between around ?3 Lacs and ?7 Lacs per annum.
May vary according to army personnel and civilians with a different fee structure between them for ACDS with children of armed forces getting certain concessions.
better go to collage, the fee some times changes with the type of person joining you, and your academic score.
