Hi.
You are better off guessing and answering the last five than just skipping them.
Unlike some other tests, the GMAT considers a question left unanswered worse than an incorrectly answered question. Also, in guessing, you may answer some correctly.

Leaving the questions un-attempted involves a much higher penalty than you would have received if you'd answer then wrong.
