A quick definition of distinct invention:

A distinct invention is a new and unique device or process that is created through independent effort and requires a high level of skill and creativity. It is something that has not been seen or done before and is not obvious to others. An invention can be patented if it meets certain criteria, such as being useful and non-obvious. A distinct invention can be a part of a larger invention, but it can also stand alone and be used separately.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A distinct invention is a patentable device or process that is created through independent effort and characterized by an extraordinary degree of skill or ingenuity. It is a newly discovered art or operation that embraces the concept of nonobviousness.

Examples: A new type of electric car that uses solar panels to recharge its battery is a distinct invention. Another example is a machine that can detect cancer cells in the body with high accuracy and speed.

Explanation: In both examples, the inventions are unique and not obvious to someone skilled in the field. They require a high degree of skill and ingenuity to create and are not simply a variation of an existing device or process. These distinct inventions can be patented and protected from others using or selling them without permission.

I am not an expert but I would imagine with your stats a lot of schools will think you have options so I would recommend writing about why that location is a top choice for you not just the school being a top choice. Try to show/convince them you will attend.
