Ask your tutors at school - I think you do have to but they shouldn't discriminate as this is really common.

I dropped after a year and a half of my course and all I put was a couple of sentences in my personal statement. I said that I enjoyed my time studying this course, however the course ultimately wasn't right for me, and I gave a list of skills that I had developed while I was there. Now I have 3 unconditional offers and an interview.

The way I look at it is that universities aren't all that bothered if you have tried and failed a different course or the same course at a different uni, they want to know if you have learned anything from the experience. But don't quote me on that.
