I just took my first real practice test and am mostly delighted with my scores, but, as expected, tanked quant a bit. I finished just under the wire but am an idiot and selected but didn't actually submit my final answer on question 36. What are the score implications?

Any question that you did not submit is not counted, thereby reducing your overall scaled score in that section.
The magnitude of the score reduction depends on the difficulty level of that question as gmat is computer adaptive.
BTW. as Integrated Reasoning is not adaptive, The magnitude of the score reduction (due to not submitting final answer) is less adaptive.
Nobody precisely knows the score algorithm in real gmat, anyway.
+1 kudo if you like my explanation

Hi donnaglaraway,
Welcome to GMATCLUB! Leaving a question unanswered on the GMAT does involve a penalty. While nothing can be said certainty about what the penalty is as nothing has been stated by GMAT officially, it is believed that it may cost anything between 1-2 points for each unanswered question. You can refer to this link to get a better picture of how the GMAT algorithm works. https://gmatclub.com/forum/new-format-g ... 69682.html
Hope this helps. All the best!
