Career Counseling

Both careers have a good scope, but what matters is your interest.
For BDS:
Dentistry has a lot of scope globally inclusive India. The thing is that what are you going to do with BDS later?
The only thing you need to have is good reputed the institution with a high calibre staff (as in private colleges) and good patient input in the institute (as in government colleges).
If you have a hunger to learn the skills then the limit .sky limit.
If you are opening a clinic, just read this Adarsh Padiyar's answer to How much can a fresher dentist earn in India? Is it true that dentists don't have a future?
Well, you can go abroad as well to pursue higher education or else you can give exams prescribed by the country you want to go to and continue your practice. This affair can be a bit expensive and gruelling.
So if you want to settle in the USA for whatever reason there are few states which allow Master's degree for international dentists. But to get into those programmes there is no known criteria and also you have to go to every state dental association website then to every university website and check out the programmes.
Even after that, those dentists will be allowed to work only in certain states.
If you are looking to go for just studies and then return to India, a lot of universities have programmes like esthetic dentistry and implant dentistry but you will not get a license to practice there in the USA.
For BPT:
Students who have completed their basic degree in Physiotherapy will get jobs according to their ability in the home country as well as abroad. Those candidates who complete their education from abroad have a greater chance of getting jobs in their home country with high salary and are highly in demand by the industry.
There are various employment areas in which the students with graduation in physiotherapy can start their career. Some of the available employment areas for BPT students are listed below:
- Educational Institutions
- Hospitals
- Sports Training Facilities
- Rehabilitation Centres for the Handicapped
- Private Clinics
- Physiotherapy Equipment Manufacturers
- Orthopedic Departments
- Schools for the Mentally Retarded and Physically Disabled Children
- Health Institutions
- Fitness Centers
- Defense Medical Establishments

Yes, Shiksha study abroad counseling service is free for students. It's free because we make money from universities, who pay us for promoting their courses to Indian students (you will notice banner advertisements at various sections of our site) and sharing students with them. So it's a mix of advertisements and commissions model.
Universities pay Shiksha because:
- They are interested in promoting their courses to the Indian students interested in studying abroad (in case you don't know, India is 2nd largest student recruitment market in the world after China). International students bring more diversity and pay higher tuition than domestic students.
- Shiksha is most popular website for study abroad aspirants in India. In terms of traffic, we receive over a million student visits to study abroad site every month as of May 2019 (as per Similarweb, an independent 3rd party analytics company).
So, in a way, we make our money through online advertisements (similar to other internet companies such as Google and Facebook). These advertisements create an initial interest, which leads some interested students to become an inquiry, and which further leads to some inquiries to apply to the university. That is, advertisement leads to interest in universities which creates inquiries resulting in university applications.
I hope that clarifies some of your doubts. Feel free to ask more.
