Narrative:
While waiting for takeoff; I was advised to make a quick takeoff as there were five other aircraft in the traffic pattern and four inbound for ZZZ. I was also notified there were other aircraft in the traffic pattern with call signs similar to my own. Shortly after rotating; a pilot of aircraft Y requested priority handling. I was advised to inform ATC once I was midfield on my downwind leg. As I flew downwind and approached midfield; ATC was communicating heavily with aircraft Y that requested priority handling. I continued to fly the downwind past midfield; beyond my abeam point and past another aircraft on final. Once ATC finished communicating with the aircraft Y; I informed them I was beyond my abeam point on my downwind leg. ATC then told me to immediately turn base and that I was cleared to land on runway xx. I continued on my base leg and then turned final for runway xx. I was on a stabilized glide path toward the runway with an airspeed around 70 KIAS. As I flew over the numbers I proceeded to land. My initial contact with the surface was hard and my aircraft slightly bounced up into the air. Upon second contact with the ground; the right wheel touched down before the left; and the aircraft began to veer to the right. I applied brakes; but inadvertently over-corrected with the right rudder. This caused the aircraft to quickly turn right and roll off the runway. Once the aircraft came to a complete stop; ATC asked me if I could get back onto a taxiway and proceed to the wash ramp. I confirmed I was able to do so and made my way back toward the [FBO] ramp.
