In short, me and 5 other people are using the smae generic essays. Granted we don't write out the exact same essays, but very similar can we lose marks for "plagiarsim" or cheating or something?

Intro and conclusion will be very different

Well apparantly they don't penalise people for plagarism in the HSC, even when markers have recognised creative responses as published short stories.

The Board Of Studies definition of imagined includes using stored information - or something like that.

So you'll probably be alright. But each centre is marked as a group so if a marker comes across to essays that are really similar it could have some sort of negative effect.

...but probably a little late to worry now.
