Dear Aspirant,

The cutoff for BDS typically tends to be lower than that for MBBS program. Also, note that the cutoff depends on a number of variables like the number of sanctions seats, applications received for admission, and performance of the applicants in NEET exam.

Further, the cutoff would vary depending on the candidates seeking admission through state or central counselling conducted by MCC. The cutoff for admission to 15% AIQ, central and demeed universities tend to be higher than for state quota seats.

Therefore under 15% AIQ, you need to score more than 450 marks to get BDS seat in a good college otherwise scoring around 400 marks you can secure a seat in some private college or university.

Hope this is helpful.
Have a great day!
