No, it doesn't matter how many attempts you use as long as you get it right eventually.

Well I think you get max 10 attempts, but yeah no penalty for multiple tries. Having wrong units doesn't even count as a try.

Yes, you don't have to submit all the answers at once.

For CAPA you can work on it as much as you want until the due date. There really isn't a need to save your answer because when get a question correct, it shows a green box and bolds your right answer and it remains like that. So near exam time, you can review CAPA and go over the processes to answer each question because you have the answer there.
