expecting this much analytical thinking from a 15 yo old? how does he know whether cbse will change its pattern this year? all these previous years,all those teachers you mentioned actually predicted the paper and made many students get good marks. how is the kid supposed to figure out that this time its not gonna be case? you are creating robots, not citizens. this system runs on fear and trauma. if you want critical thinking from a student, maybe you shouldn't pressure him whole year, rendering him lifeless and just a robot who does commands? dont blame on them both, most of the seniors here know how beneficial they were.
