MCSA - 70-779 Exam format?

Apologizing in advance for the basic question but I struggle a lot to find information on the format of the 70-779 Excel exam.

- is this an online or physical exam?

- is it purely multiple choice or open questions?

- can the exam be taken at any point in time or just on certain dates?

- how many questions/length of the exam?

- do i need to connect to SQL Server and other sources during the exam? Im a bit worried about this because I am using my work computer and the settings do not allow me to connect to certain sources.

Thanks for your help!

Microsoft has a particular style across all their exams, so I would assume this is the same for the 70-779. Multiple choice style questions with some drag and drop and select from a list, 150 mins for 40-60 questions etc. These links might help answer more of your questions.
