Only reason to use screws is in place of clamps. I like to use some screws even with clamps because pieces butted together tend to move when you tighten the clamps. I've also put small brads into one panel and clipped them off so they are just 1/2" proud, then they act as "spurs" to hold the adjacent panel in place.
Remember to drill the hole in the top panel larger than the screw so the under panel pulls tight.
