4) How was your exam/party/meeting/holiday/vacation etc.?
My questions are:
Do they mean the same? Yes.
Are they all possible to ask someone about the results of the exam? Yes.
Are they all commonly used or is there one in particular that in English is used more commonly? Equally among 2), 3), and 4) in AmE.
Are there any other verbs or phrases to say to ask about something (not only an exam) has gone? The "somethings" in 4) could be used in 2) and 3) also.
Thanks you all for your answers.
