centres get marked together. That said though, i'm sure you guys have differing writing styles, they won't be the same. ANd in theory shouldn't everyone have the same content anyway? if you're so worried about it, just swap some paragraph orders around.

i dont think you should worry about it. how can collaborating to improve your learning be considered 'cheating' when neither of you know what the question is.
how can it be plagiarising if you both worked on t together?
techinically we all take our ideas from teachers and textbooks anyway.
there may be some technical rule that gets you, but i wouldnt worry about it...

i mean unless they see you copying off someone in the exam room i dnt think there is much they can do.....
It could just be that u guys memorised the same essay. And that isnt considered cheating or plagirisam in exam room conditions...
thats what one of my teachers said once anyway.


would u and this friedns be positioned near eachother in the exam???... that maybe a bit risky then but if your last name statrs with and his/her starts with p ... dnt fret
