Subjonctif passé for "jusqu'à ce que"?

Could you say "jusqu'à ce que j'aie trouvé la personne" instead of "jusqu'à ce que je trouve la personne"?

Studying IB

Hello everyone,

I was just wondering if you could give me some tips to use this website effectively, as I can't figure out how to remember the information. The topic tests aren't enough, so I was thinking to make flashcards, but that sounds straining.

I'm doing IB and I need some tips - anything helps.

Thank you.

par carte vs en carte

Imo, it should be "par carte", not "en carte". Isn't it?

"...a little note."

Would "un petit mot" work as a translation here? I feel like I've come across this much more often than "note", or maybe there's some nuance I'm missing?

Forming negative commands with reflexive verbs

The question was “ tell your friends, don’t sit down!” Shouldn’t we use the tu form not the vous form in this case?
