When I used to interview people in the Big 4, the interviews were always behavioral anyways. Sure there was a 3.5 GPA "filter" but I'm pretty sure that no one at the interview roundtables pushed a high GPA person that was devoid of personality or some kind of extra curricular (sports, frat, something else meaningful).
The issue is that there are definitely those with lower GPAs that would do these firms well because of stuff they have done outside of the classroom.
