Correct Answer: didn’t I?


Solution : The correct choice is the first option.

Explanation:
The original sentence is in the form of a tag question, where the tag is formed by inverting the auxiliary verb and the subject. Since the main sentence is in the past tense ("I told you"), the appropriate tag should also be in the past tense.

Therefore, the correct sentence would be: I told you not to miss your classes, didn't I?
