BDS Admissions
LMDC admissions committee focuses on taking a holistic approach to selecting students for our dentistry program. We include students from all over Pakistan and practice policies of inclusion and diversity. Research has shown that students who learn in dynamic and diverse classes tend to be better trained and these policies translate into significant patient care approaches to practicing dentistry.
The LMDC faculty and coordinators not only look at the students’ academic profiles but like to admit students with strong interpersonal skills, leadership qualities, and an inquisitive mind. Each year we put together a class that can help students learn from shared experiences and combined studying practices.
