In the US basically every large exam especially the end of year and college admissions tests (except the essay portion recently added to the SAT when I took it) were all bubble forms. In college it was most common in the large classes that were part of the options for the general education requirements that would use them instead of open ended questions so they could be automatically graded for the 50-100 students who'd be taking each exam. It was also way more common in classes where answers would be numerical rather than say my proofs and logic class where we needed to write out a proof. IMO it was deployed logically where multiple choice made sense it was used and classes where the path to the solution was important they'd not use it.
