When I submit a job using 

qsub script.sh

is $@ setted to some value inside script.sh? That is, are there any command line arguments passed to script.sh?

You can pass arguments to the job script using the -F option of qsub:

qsub script.sh -F "args to script"

or inside script.sh:

#PBS -F arguments

This is documented here.
