MBB Offer but Worried About Background Check

I got an offer from MBB a few days ago, but I've been bothered by the fact that they will be doing a background check on me. I have no criminal records, but I believe I have a bad credit score due to a couple unpaid medical bills a while back.

The bills went to collections, but they've stopped bothering me, so I ignored the bills until now. I have held other jobs that ran background checks since this time, but those were with restaurants. Now I'm worried my offer will be rescinded. Anyone have experience with a situation like this?

 

I've heard that MBB offers are unconditional on your grades, is this true? So say you got an offer in your final year of undergrad (in the UK), then your job is guaranteed regardless of what grade you graduate with? Is that true?
