Really not sure what you mean by "does it make sense to work towards it this year"?
Could you provide some clarification on this.
Also you are right, your profile does seem ideal for a MiM. if you are worried about applying with a 2 year+ work ex, DONT. MiM batches are full of people with such amount of work ex, you can check out
https://www.mim-essay.com/mim-student-pr ... urvey.html for a study we did on the profile of MiM students.
Additionally, rather than concentrating on the CEMS MiM program, i would suggest you concentrate on getting into a top MiM school (LBS, HEC, ESSEC, ESCP, IE). The opportunities they offer in terms of exchange, double degrees, gap years/semesters are huge in number and you would be really spoilt for choices, as each of these choices has some great benefits behind them.
So i would suggest, rather than thinking about CEMS MiM ( which is also mainly an exchange program between partner schools) think about which is the best school you can target. You can check out
