At present, the BDS to MBBS Bridge Course does not exist as a standard offering in India. The typical route involves preparing for and qualifying in the NEET UG exam, and then pursuing MBBS through the traditional channels. If you are serious about making this transition, it's essential to plan for the additional time and resources required.
