The K.D. Medical College Hospital and Research Centre provides highly competitive MS in Ophthalmology admissions with significant importance given to NEET PG scores. Even though the college possesses a good reputation, an entry is obtained only when the ranking is very high in the entrance exam. Furthermore, competition changes with each passing year as it depends upon the number of applicants and the number of seats available in the college. Therefore, getting a high NEET PG score and good preparation would be very important to provide a wide chance of getting into this programme.
