According to the Engagement Studio FAQ, when a program is paused, the prospects in the program are also paused and their wait times are not affected. Therefore, when the program is restarted, the prospects resume from where they left off. In this case, the prospect was on day 3 of a 5-day wait time when the program was paused, so they will be on day 3 when the program is restarted.

Rule step types in engagement studio programs are used to check the prospect criteria, such as field values, list membership, tags, grades, scores, etc. Rule steps can branch the program based on whether the prospect meets the criteria or not. For example, a rule step can check if the prospect has a certain job title or industry and send them different emails accordingly. Prospect interest, behavior, and activity are not rule step types, but they can be used as criteria for rule steps. Reference Engagement Studio: Rule Steps

The difference between a visitor and a prospect is that a visitor is an anonymous person who visits your website, while a prospect is a known person who has an identified email address. A visitor becomes a prospect when they fill out a Marketing Cloud Account Engagement form, click on a tracked link in an email, or are manually imported into Marketing Cloud Account Engagement. A prospect does not necessarily have an opportunity, a Marketing Cloud Account Engagement form submission, or an assigned user, but a visitor does not have any of these either.

The score is a numerical value that indicates how interested a prospect is in your products or services based on their activities, such as email opens, clicks, form submissions, etc. The score helps marketers prioritize leads and identify prospects who are ready to buy. Lenoxsoft is interested in following up with IT professionals who are actively engaging with their marketing materials, so the score is the best indicator of their interest level. The grade is a letter value that indicates how well a prospect matches your ideal customer profile based on their attributes, such as industry, job title, location, etc. The grade helps marketers segment leads and target prospects who are a good fit for your business. The profile reflects Lenoxsoft’s ideal customer, but it does not show how engaged the prospect is. The campaign is the first touch point that brought the prospect to your website, such as a Google ad, an email, or a social media post. The campaign helps marketers track the source and effectiveness of their marketing channels, but it does not show how engaged the prospect is. Reference [Scoring and Grading Overview]
