Gitlab: Removing specific scheduled jobs from scheduled pipelines

I have following jobs and stages and with this yml configuration the test stage runs on schedule and regular pipelines when I set $RUN_JOB variable to true in my schedule and in my project's CI/CD variables. But this also schedules scheduled-test-1 and scheduled-test-2 in my scheduled pipelines.

What I want to do is that the test stage should continue to run on schedule and regular pipelines but scheduled-test-1 and scheduled-test-2 should not be scheduled with test stage.

stages:
  build
  test
  deploy
  scheduled-test-1
  scheduled-test-2

build:
  script:
  - echo $Service_Version
  only:
  - develop
  except:
  - schedules

test:
  script:
  - echo $Service_Version
  only:
    variables:
    - $RUN_JOB

deploy:
  script:
  - echo $Service_Version
  only:
  - develop
  except:
  - schedules

scheduled-test-1:
  script:
  - echo $Service_Version
  only:
  - schedules

scheduled-test-2:
  script:
  - echo $Service_Version
  only:
  - schedules

There might be a simpler option but, using artifacts:reports as in Exporting environment variables from one stage to the next in GitLab CI might help.

The idea would be to export a RUN_TEST environment variable (a flag to signal the test job has been executed), and use it in the scheduled-test-x jobs in a rules section:

rules:
    - if: $RUN_TEST != ""

While those scheduled-test-x jobs might still be scheduled, at least they would not run, but their rule would be false.
