Do MSc GPA's matter for MBA

I'm currently an MSc in Finance student and was wondering how much weight do top B-schools give to graduate school GPA.

I had an undergraduate GPA of 3.42 but struggled throughout my MSc. It had a really steep quantitative learning curve with lots of coding that I wasn't prepared for. I'd like to target schools such as Insead/M7, how will they view my application with a weak graduate school GPA?

Thanks in advance!
