KLE Society's Institute of Dental Sciences shows unpredictable BDS cutoffs: AIR 4,24,249 in 2023, AIR 1,77,833 in 2024, AIR 1,29,298 in 2025. Plan for volatility. For ST BDS candidates, the effective cutoff of AIR 3,57,854 is far more lenient than the OPEN mark of AIR 1,29,298. For the AIR 1,95,034–AIR 2,92,552 range, this dental college is a reasonable safety seat.
