By the time you were ready, the bus had already gone

The translation is ' tu soit prete', what would it be if you were translating ' By the time you are ready, ' ? I thought ' you were ready' would be in the subjunctive passe?

This question relates to:French lesson "Le temps que + the subjunctive mood (Le Subjonctif) = By the time that in French"
