can two people use the same pre-planned story for aqa creative writing?

hello all, this is very urgent. Me and a friend have worked together to create a pre planned story for the english language creative writing question (aqa). if the question goes well we will essentially be writing the same thing (with maybe a few sentences changed during the exam). we are the only people who will be using this pre-planned story. will we be questioned/disqualified for plagiarism? we will not be sitting near each other in the exam hall. thanks

Why did you do this? It's supposed to be your work ... it could get flagged as one examiner will mark al your school's papers.

By pre planned, do you mean the plot is the same, or you have written out a answer together. If the former, you are all good, however if it is the latter, you need to be careful. Although you aren't copying a published piece of work - definition of plagiarism, this may not be allowed. Even if your fine, using the same written story, even if uve tweaked a bit, may mark you down on AO5, as it looks for inventivity and creativity - not something you find if two pieces are incredibly similar
