Sentence check

person1: I just finished my art exam.
person2: You have/had exams? (I think have is okay as well cause I may also be referring to exams the next days. "Had" is also acceptable because it may refer to the past exam.)

Please tell me what is right to say in a conversation/grammatically correct.

You said I could use "have". If it doesn't refer to the future exams, then what does it refer to?
