State Pension Forecast - making up an underpaid year.

I currently have 35 years of full contributions and the current tax year will also be full.  The State Pension forecast tells me I need two more years to qualify for the full pension, presumably including the current year.  I aspire to work either part time or intermittently through to retirement - if they let me!
According to my NI history the only year not full that I could still make up is 2011/12, at a cost of £174.35.  Is there any point?
Thanks in anticipation!
