Do you think God makes exceptions for really, really good people?

Wel he doesn't make exceptions because I do not beleive he has specific set of rules stating if you do this, you're going to hell and this heaven. I think that part is manmade. God knows everyone has reasons and a history for why they do what they do. However- I do beleive that great people will go to heaven because the good they did while living AND after deserves reward :-)
