I can install.

I have 13.3 Macbook pro 2012 my computer is really new like only 6 months old. My computer was being really laggy so I check with Disk utility and I had to repair my disk so I did but aparently I had to erase it I did but when I instaled Yosmite it didn't work so, when I went back Mavericks showed up insted of Yosemite. That fine I really dont care I just want my computer to turn on. But, my hardware is falling and so I cant install anything. So, what I wan't to know is if I can get Maverick installed just until I can take it to the apple store. I live far way and can't go until friday and I need my computer for school.

MacBook Pro (13-inch Mid 2012)

So it sounds like your hard drive may be failing?

And you tried to repair it and that did not work - is that correct?

If your hard drive is failing, no - you can try to install the OS, but it may or may not work. You can try by using recovery (hold Command + R while booting up); in the Utilities window, choose to reinstall OS X.

By the way, did you just buy your computer new 6 months ago (and it is from 2012)?
