A: "How soon" is used to ask for a duration of time, but with emphasis on the fact that it is going to happen quite soon.

For example, you could ask "What time is the project due?" . If you are rushing to finish the project on time you could ask "How soon is the project due?". Using "How soon" emphasises that you're interested in knowing how close the deadline is, and not just when the deadline is.

A: As soon as you arrive, I'll prepare dinner.

A: “as far as” I’m concerned, we can leave tonight.
I guess it means something like “in my opinion”.

A: Good question!

They have very similar meanings, though some distinct differences.

[in no time]: an idiom used to mean in a very small amount of time, very quickly or surprisingly fast, almost instantly or immediately

[soon]: in a short amount of time, immediately, in agreement with a preference


Here are some examples:

"You need to hurry up because the train will leave [soon]!"

A: Are the zombies here yet?
B: No, but we should get a move on as [soon] as possible.
A: You're right, [the sooner the better].

"I'd [just as soon] jump off that cliff than let them drive me around again!"

"Don't worry, we won't be waiting long. The train will here here [in no time at all]."

A: Make sure you do a good job!
B: Don't worry, I'll be done [in no time at all]!

"Realizing your kids are growing up is both happy and sad, because you realize they'll be leaving home [in (next to) no time]."

You can choose to leave the words in ( ) out

[In no time] puts emphasis on the speed and / or surprise of something happening

A: @Edlbi: Actually I would not agree. Soon and shortly are not fixed words with exact definitions. The length of time depends, but they are generally equal.

In other words, same and shortly mean the same thing, but soon is more commonly used. As for how long of a time they are used for? We may never know.

A: At once is usually a demand and it implies that whatever will happen will happen immediately.

"I want these papers complete at once!"

Soon means there is a little more time to do something or for something to happen.

"Dinner will be done soon."

A: You use "soon" when something is going to happen in a short amount of time from when the sentence is said. You use "early" when something happens a bit earlier than it needed to.

Examples:
It's 2:45 and you need to leave by 3:00. You tell your friend "I need to leave soon."
You need to be somewhere by 3:00 and you get there at 2:45. You would say "I am here early."

A: これが分からなくてごめんなさい。「Soon」ってもうアメリカの英語です。どう発音するって聞いていますか。

A: As soon as. I will do it as soon as I can.

A: That would be very informal conversation. "Like" is sometimes used as a placeholder (like "um" or "uh") and is sometimes used informally for dramatic effect. "That's, like, soon." would be emphasizing 'soon'. I would say that to a friend, but not to a manager.
