Yes, "shot off like a rocket" is a simile because it uses "like" to make a comparison between two things—in this case, the speed or suddenness of something taking off and a rocket. Similes are figures of speech that draw comparisons to enhance imagery or understanding. In this expression, it vividly conveys the idea of rapid movement or acceleration.

How do you change ''he marched off to class like a soldier on a mission to a metaphor?

Well, "He marched off to class like a soldier on a mission," is a metaphor. It just happens to be a simile too.Here's the thing: all similes are metaphors, but not all metaphors are similes. Both are comparisons made between dissimilar things; a simile just does it using "like" or "as."If you wish to keep it a metaphor but make it no longer a simile, remove the like and insert a comma: "He marched off to class, a soldier on a mission."
