<human>: Can you summarize the given text in a few sentences?

I really hope I don't come across as being snobby with this, but I feel like it's going to turn out like that anyway.

I'm a junior in high school and am known for consistently having the highest GPA in my grade/receiving many academic awards. My school (I'm guessing all high schools do) offers opportunities for students to be admitted to the National Honor Society. Normally, students are offered a chance to apply during their sophomore year, but for whatever reason my class was not allowed to do so until our junior year. This goes without saying, because you've probably already figured out my predicament by now, but I did not get accepted. I'm guessing it's because I don't participate in any school-related extracurricular activities, even though I do plenty of things outside of my academics.

A situation has never arisen before where I did not get permitted into something that was academic-related, and I'm probably the most depressed right now than I've ever been before in my life. I have no idea if seniors are allowed to join the society and honestly if they aren't I'm going to be pissed beyond belief.

I'm hoping to go to Duke University and study pre-medicine when I enter college, and I will be disappointed if me not being in the NHS will lower my chances of being accepted.

Basically I'm asking you, Reddit, how this will affect me in the future. If you have any words of advice or encouragement, then I'd love to hear them. I'm hoping to play tennis on the school team next year and join the key club, so if I am eligible as a senior then those things could possibly raise my chances of being accepted.
<bot>: Will not being accepted into National Honor Society lower my chances of getting accepted to colleges even though I maintain a consistent 4.5+ GPA?
