You want to get some work experience. Most US programs require at least 2 years of full time work experience and then most average about 4-5 years of full time experience.

As to education, any 4-year accredited degree would do. A master's degree is nice but it won't be a big driver in your app.

PS. It is Doubts with a silent B.

Hi suvz052,

Your undergrad degree would be of 3-year duration. Only few MBA programs require a 4-year degree to be eligible for application. Most don’t. More on this here. So, if you’ve clarity on where you want to apply, which you may not have at this stage, then you may take a call on whether to go for an additional degree or not.

And, yes, you need to have some experience under your belt before you can realistically compete.
