Start preparing for GMAT and give it as soon as possible. Find some good professors who can give you a good letter of recommendations. It will be very expensive so be prepare to have good financial background.

Most of the top business schools look for some work experience prior to joining the MBA program. It does help in "usually case based" teaching style adopted by top B schools. I would certainly recommend atleast one year of work experience in your chosen field, before pursuing an MBA program.
To put together a good application for top business schools, you need the following
1. GMAT
2. Your undergrad credentials (GPA/Percentage)
3. Work Experience details
4. Write-up on your future goals. Most schools ask you to write essays on various topics, which are geared to extract your goals and thoughts about future.
You can work on GMAT while you are going through undergrad. Number 4 is important for you, to get most value out of your investment (both time and money) in an MBA program.
