FUTURE PERFECT
 
I �ve been searching the web and different grammar books but I didn �t find any help. Maybe  you have an answer to my question:
" By that time, I will have finished my exams"
Where can I add "just" or "already" to that sentence:
a) " By that time, I will just have finished my exams"
b) " By that time, I will have just finished my exams"

I think the grammar rule is that you add adverbs after auxiliary verbs, and since "will" and "have" are both auxiliary verbs in the future perfect tense, the correct sentence should be:
b) " By that time, I will have just finished my exams"
However, let �s wait for native speakers to give us their opinion.

I totally agree. It �s I will have just/already finished my exams!
