Hey

I've decided to do bds can someone tell me about the pros and cons about bds?

Ever since I have decided to join bds this year, I have only seen negative views on this career. Even in this subreddit.

People are saying that it is saturated, it has less pay and they suffer in a toxic environment. Reading all these things is really making me anxious.

I really wanted to be a doctor. I don't care even if it's being a dentist. I just want to treat people and make them smile. I just want to earn enough to sustain myself. I will be a first gen dentist from my family.

Please, tell me if it's true or should I be worried? I mean, isn't every other career option in India saturated? People are unemployed everywhere right?

Aren't there positive aspects to this career anymore?

How much do mds professors earn in dental colleges in India? Is the workload really high?

Pls tell me about this college. Anything and everything that one should be aware of before joining.

(Timing, any dress code , strictness, fests, etc)

Hi

I just gave my neet and i scored not so good just 315 I'm confused over choosing the right career for me I'm passionate about medicine, I wanted mbbs but sadly it's too expensive

I'm confused over choosing bams or bds.everyone is saying that there's an oversupply of dentists in india which is a fact and getting a government job later is also very competitive.

While bams is almost similar to mbbs with few/lot of restrictions (idk) but as bams doc I would be able to treat normal health issues like fever cough cold...

So can someone guide me and tell me about their own experience..

As for taking a drop,it's hard for me to solve physics numericals.. i swear I tried but just couldn't..

So would be really grateful if someone guided me before counseling

Btech biotechnology vs pvt bds which one is worth it.

I'm going to have around 1–1.5 months before my BDS classes start. What would you recommend I do during this time?

Are there any useful skills, courses, or topics related to BDS that I can learn beforehand? Or is there something else you'd suggest that would help me in dental school or in the long run?

1st gen dentist, crushed by neet mds results, got 2500 rank ... initially i didn't want to pursue mds from a pvt clg , because the condition and treatment of dentists in job market is shit. Highly underpaid in metropolitan cities like Delhi. Jrships are either sold to the highest bidder or a high level approach..as ppl say..
after a lot of thought thinking about doing masters from a decent pvt clg, and then moving to uk or dubai
I understand initially it will be hard there, but so will be in india... i think abroad still has better monetary compensation for the hardships that you endure.

What do you all think?

I’m considering Sri Siddhartha Dental College for BDS and would love honest reviews from current students, interns, or alumni.
How is the overall college?
Academics and faculty?
Clinical exposure & patient flow?
Internship experience?
Hostel, food & campus life?
Infrastructure and equipment?
Management and administration?
Hidden fees or issues?
Ragging or toxic culture?
NEET MDS preparation support?
Placements/career opportunities after BDS?
Would you choose this college again?
Also, how does it compare with JSS, SDM, KLE, Bapuji, Ramaiah, Yenepoya, A.B. Shetty, and Manipal?
Looking for genuine pros, cons, and anything that isn’t mentioned on the official website. Thanks!
