Lines
Honestly not much to say about this one, they look straight and confident. In the ghosted lines there is a bit of wobbling at the end (or start, i don't know since they look almost perfect), and you seem to have drawn through a couple of lines, but overall they look perfect.
Ellipses
You seem to have drawn through some of them more than three times but they are all tangent, and the planes with ellipses look practically perfect, with your ellipse touching all the borders of the planes. There are one or two that seem a bit wobbly, but overall it looks great. The funnels look good as well, with the minor axis dividing the ellipse in two equal halves.
Boxes
Not a lot to say about the boxes except that they also look great, rough perspective and rotated boxes are done almost perfectly and the organic perspective looks natural. Great job!
Your submission looks great, and that could be because you have more experience than an actual begginner or because it's not the first time making these exercises. If you are restarting drawabox for some reason or you had previous experience then that's great! I just want to make sure you are not grinding. Your submission is not supposed to look perfect, so you should submit your first attempt even if doesn't look very good, you will make mistakes in this course and it is normal and natural, we should learn to accept our mistakes rather than burn ourselves out trying to make our submissions perfect.
That being said, if you weren't grinding and actually submitted your first attempt then ignore what I just said, I just want to make sure that you don't get burnt out.
I am marking your submission as complete, so good luck on the 250 box challenge!

Thank you so much for the feedback. This is my first attempt, but indeed I am not a beginner; I'm trying a more structured approach to drawing, so to speak.

How to Draw by Scott Robertson
When it comes to technical drawing, there's no one better than Scott Robertson. I regularly use this book as a reference when eyeballing my perspective just won't cut it anymore. Need to figure out exactly how to rotate an object in 3D space? How to project a shape in perspective? Look no further.
