[QUOTE="prospectiveswitcher, post: 151773, member: 24174"] I don't have the authority or experience of the others who have replied - but I do not think you have to disclose explicitly what happened. You could always keep it constructively ambiguous without overtly being deceptive and say 'I initially began X course, but due to various factors including some severe health issues, I took some time out before starting my [main degree] in Y'. This may come across better and keep focus on your 'main' degree which hopefully has gone better for you. I would also be inclined to not mention it at all on application forms if it is not queried, but if you are pressed you would obviously have to be transparent. [/QUOTE]
