When it comes to a top school, every little bit helps, so there's no right answer. If you feel you can truly have a higher performance on the MCAT (3+ points) if you don't take the classes, this might be the way to go.

If the only science classes you have taken in the US are the pre-reqs then taking some upper division science courses would be beneficial to you. If you have already proven yourself in US upper division sciences, I wouldn't bother.

I'd say study for the MCAT. The difference between a 3.61 and a 3.7 isn't as great as the difference between a 25 and 35.

Also, volunteer and get your clinical activity up. I don't see much of a mention of it.
