okay so I juss moved to USA from Bangladesh in Asia, I lost one school year, now I am 18 and gonna be in sophomore, so I'm pretty depressed for this late education, is it possible that my high school can permit me to skip sophomore class & go to Junior class, I have done great in my Freshman year so I dunno if thats possible and one more thing, I wanna go to a good college like Harvard or John Hopkins, so would those colleges take me if I skip one high school year??

No, you can't skip a year, you need the credits to graduate high school.
Consider going to a community college, get your GED. If you are that smart, you should be able to get it quickly and instead of spending 2 more years in HS you can accumulate college credit.

Yes, you can skip your sophomore class and go into junior class. Just bypass the sophomore classroom that you are supposed to go to and slip into the back of the junior class you want to be in. You'll be ahead one year and no one will be the wiser! Then, when you "graduate", you'll actually have one year off! Because your records will still show you as that sophomore but you can simply wait it out and have fun and then go off to Harvard or John Hopkins.

Talk with your school. It might require you taking extra courses in the summer or at community college.
