Great choice! Approaching an essay question by conducting research and developing your own position is an effective way to demonstrate critical thinking and independent thought. Basing your answer solely on websites from the first page of Google results may not provide a comprehensive understanding of the topic at hand, and may lack depth and complexity. It's important to consult a variety of sources, including books, peer-reviewed articles, and primary sources, in order to develop a well-supported and nuanced argument in response to an essay question.
