Honestly, I don't know but I think this forum tends to place too much emphasis on grades. I graduated from a local uni and I know peers who graduated with a 2nd lower/ without cum laude who are at big4 or international (albeit city) firms. In other words there are people who were mediocre at school who are earning 5 figure salaries (without front load) as junior associates.
Grades do matter but at the end of the day being street smart is just as important.
