My school issued laptop (and every other one in the school) has the time off by two minutes but all the bells in the school are on time. Is there a way to fix this without admin. I need it to be right 'cause at this point I'm cutting WAY closer than id like. Such as on time for my first class by about 20ish seconds, when i thought i had 2 minutes.

If I use words like probably or most likely, it is because I dislike certainty. These words can probably be omitted and the sentence read as a certainty.

Can't you just know that the time is two minutes slower? It's more likely that your school is fast since your laptop will set time automatically. Or you could try and get to class more than two minutes early!

No its the laptop because all my personal devices are synced to the bell and the clocks in the school also line up to real time.

Yeh I figured! Try and re-sync your time and date: http://www.tekrevue.com/tip/fix-incorrect-windows-clock/

see the little shield icon on the change settings icon. It means I need admin which i don't have otherwise this would be a easy fix.

Welp, you might just have to learn that your clock is off by a bit and compensate for it. Unless you can just go and ask your tech guys (if you have them) for help.
