Wait for one processes to complete in a shell script

Let's say I start process A.sh, then start process B.sh. I call both of them in my C.sh
How can I make sure that B starts its execution only after A.sh finishes.
I have to do this in loop.Execution time of A.sh may vary everytime.
It is a parameterized script.
