Mention the truth. There is nothing wrong in not completing a degree. Even Bill Gates didn't complete his degree.

i don't think there's anything wrong with it i just thought it might be irrelevant since it will not count as education points thats all. i took your advice though and put it the form

In background declaration, they want to know where you were, for security clearance purposes. That has nothing to do with points.
