With a NEET MDS rank of 1,172, your chances of getting admission to Dr. Harvansh Singh Judge Institute of Dental Sciences, Chandigarh, are very strong under the All India Quota. The institute’s closing rank for general category candidates in recent years has been well beyond your rank, making you eligible for consideration. While top clinical branches like Oral Surgery, Orthodontics, and Endodontics may be highly competitive and close at lower ranks, you still have a good chance of getting clinical specialties such as Periodontology, Prosthodontics, or Public Health Dentistry. Final allotment will depend on your category, the choices filled, and seat availability during the counselling rounds. Overall, your rank positions you well for admission into a reputable government dental college like HS Judge with a clinical branch.
