Getting my license

I am going to get get my license and I want to know a couple of things.

What is involved in the test?
Is it in English?
What are there hours of operation? (Can I go on a weekend)
Do I need to make an appointment?
How much does it cost?
Should I get there with my own scooter, or take the bus? (I don’t want to get fined for driving there without a license.)
Is it hard?
Is there a written part?

Any answers would help.
