The exam runs 2.5 hours in English speaking countries (we add 30 minutes
for non-English speaking countries). Results are immediate.
There are four objectives, each consisting of a few tasks.

Partial credit is assigned to the tasks if you complete part of a task
correctly.

The exam is designed around generally real-world scenarios, so the tasks
within an objective may build off of each other. It's less likely that
tasks in one objective are dependent on tasks in another objective, but I
wouldn't rule that out either.
