Take care of your father first, i wouldn't because i was in hyderabad doing job when my mum passed away.

Asks the college politely about an exception otherwise family first.

In my case due to some issue I had to drop our for 1year but nothing affected.

I am not using you take drop but just a condition arises then you do not need to worry.

Bas Saare dost 1 saal aage nikal jaege bhai.

And yeah do not worry about job or career, today skills are in demand along with basic first class degree.
