So I am studying abroad this semester and I am currently studying for finals. Only class credit transfers and not my grade, so basically my grade does not affect my GPA. I know for grad school applications I will have to submit my abroad institution's transcript.
My question is, how heavily do business and law schools look at study abroad grades and what would happen if I failed a course or just barely passed with a poor grade?

Not sure if it works differently in your school, but grades in an abroad course don’t affect your gpa as long as you pass. If you fail, it comes back as a 0.
I took a rigorous quant course while abroad (stupid, I know) and got a D-. Came back as a pass and didn’t affect my GPA. No employer has asked to see that transcript.
