Text Response - Are Study Guides(Neap, Sparknotes) important?

I have always wondered if it would be better to utilise the already fleshed out ideas in study guides such as Sparknotes/ Neap/TSSM etc. or write based on my own interpretation of the film.  What would you guys recommend?
Thanks.

If you were a VCAA english examiner, would you like to read the same fleshed out ideas over and over?

Study guides should only be used to provide a brief background of the core themes.
