Your classes in Middle School will have little affect on your ability to become a vet. Get good grades in Middle School and High School so that you can get into a good college. Then take a pre-med or pre-vet major and hope you can get into Vet school, which is very hard to do, even harder then medical school.

Long to take you to get to school
There are some scholarships for vet school, but they are relatively rare compared to all the scholarships you can apply for in undergraduate. For the most part, scholarships will not cover the entire cost of tuition for vet school and many students take out student loans to cover the rest.
No, it is not required to take calculus in high school to become a veterinarian. However, if it is an option and you have the math skills to take calculus, it will probably help you in undergraduate where you will have to take calculus and pass it to apply to vet school. Most vet schools require Calculus I and some require Calculus I and II to apply for vet school. The reason I would recommend taking calculus in high school if you have the math background is because taking it for the first time in high school is free and gives you at least some of the knowledge of the class so that when you take it in undergraduate and have to pay tuition you have a better understanding of the topic.
