Worrying a little...

In the school I go to, (Troy High), there were about 10 people who got accepted to Stanford, and they all had straight A’s. However, one had one B, and got rejected.

Is it possible that at choosing from an elite public magnet school or any other highly ranked school, that decisions are weighted differently? Pretty much, what I mean is that is every applicant looked at with equal treatment, even at a highly competitive school? (My only weakness is one B).
