Legal Question in Immigration Law in California

I have had a green card for 10 years. I successfully renewed it this year (2014) for another 10 years. I would like to become a US citizen.

I was away for more than a year in the last 5 years (studies)

But I have been living in the US since January 2012 continuously.

Details:

2009 Studying in France / in the US for 3 months - summer

2010 Studying in France

2011 Studying in France

2012 in the US

2013 in the US

2014 in the US

Since I was able to renew my green card, what are the risks of not disclosing that I was away for more than a year?

Is my only solution to wait 3 more years?
