You're very wrong about the point thing. It's exactly as tarheel said, you lose 1/4 point for each wrong answer. So if you randomly guess on 5 questions, you will probably get one of them right (since each has a 1/5 chance) and four of them wrong. Your score for these 5 questions will be zero, which is what it would be if you left them all blank. Guessing does not help you unless you can eliminate some possible answers first.
There was no writing when I took the SAT. In 7th grade I got 340/710 verbal/math, in 11th grade I got 680/800.
Anyway, don't worry about it, because it doesn't count for anything. What it will do is give you experience in taking the test, so when you take it again in 11th grade, you'll have seen it before, and you'll know what to expect.
