There is a penalty. So, you're better off guessing on the last two questions rather than leaving them unmarked.

Is there any penalty for not attending all questions in GMAT and how the score is affected if not attended last 1-2 questions.

Posted from my mobile device

Hi TeenaChoudhary

Leaving Questions Unattempted may even be worse than making consecutive mistakes. If you do so, GMAT believes that you don’t have the capability of solving the whole test paper and penalizes you more than even incorrect questions. So, never leave questions unattempted, even if it means marking questions randomly in the end. Don’t worry even if you get questions wrong consecutively, it is better than leaving them unattempted.
