We have compiled a comprehensive list of all BDS seats available in colleges throughout India, grouped by the type of college (public, private, central, etc. ) for the reference of those who wish to apply for admission to MBBS and BDS programs in medical colleges across the country.
The new exam rules and guidelines for the NEET exam 2022 are based on NEET BDS Seats.
The following list will help candidates know that -
1. The NEET 2022 merit list is based on the ranks, scorecard, and admit cards. Colleges use this information for seat allocation. Seats are also offered to some veterinary colleges so that candidates can take their admission to undergraduate courses like BVSc and Animal Husbandry. It is possible under the 15% All India Quota.
2. The seat reservation for specific categories such as SC, ST, OBC, PwD, and others are made by MCC.
3. The seat filling-up procedure has four rounds of NEET counselling- Round 1, Round 2, Mop-up round, and Stray vacancy round.
4. Since NEET exams have replaced AIIMS and AIPMT, admission to MBBS and BDS colleges is solely based on the seat distribution index.
5. State-wise seat matrix distribution for NEET 2022 exam will be released by some states, usually during counselling.
