Guessing on DAT

Say you've got some time left on the DAT and you go back to the questions you have no clue on. Is it a good/bad idea to just put a straight up guess or leave it blank? Does one get penalized equally for an incorrect answer and a question left blank?

you dont get points off for getting a questions wrong so always guess and put an answer down

An unanswered question is the same as a wrong answer. I like to go through fairly quickly, answering every question but marking those I am less sure of or those I think will be a big time investment. After I get to the end, I use the extra time to review the marked questions.
