Just a good BBA will do, with some general knowledge of IB during the interview. I got offer with just BBA, not yet even out of school.

But TS said he already got a business degree and couldn't get any offer. Don't you think he should go for Masters in Finance ?

Master in finance without any working experience as an IB analyst will make the situation worse. Spend few years more than  average fresh grad for the stupid master just to break in IB doh.gif

I would recommend aim for the bulge bracket IB instead of boutique. Unless your cv is not really that impressive and you're not from ivy leagues or top unis. But don't think boutique firm is easy to get in, it sometimes is even harder than bulge bracket.
