It’s weird because there are some people with low grades, sometimes, who get in, and then there are people who, sometimes, with high grades don’t get in. It’s based on everything you do. Schools like to see if you are involved and if you do a lot for the community. They want to see what you can do for them, and how you can make them better. For example, I am an Athlete. If I am good they will take me for that, in addition to my good grades. If you just have a 4.0 1600 SATs, yeah that looks good, and you wil probably get accepted, but if you are being compared to someone with a 3.99 and a 1599 SAT, but does sports, National Honor Society, clubs, etc, they will get it over the 4.0, 1600. Schools like Extracurricular activities, and if you have them, it looks better. Also make sure you have applied EA, and early, because schools like it if you apply early, it shows you are interested.

Let me know if there is anything else you need.
