Hey Darius.
I highly recommend that you redo some of the boxes and draw through the lines with another colored pen or even a graphite pencil. This minor thing would drastically improve an understanding of how vanishing points work and improve your boxes, which is arguably a very critical part of learning how to draw. When you were using a pen in your earlier boxes I noticed a good pace of improvement with drawing them in proper perspective. However, later on, it seems that you began to stop drawing the lines back and the box quality began to look rushed or inaccurate. Don't forget to ghost your lines as well. Unfortunantly, drawing isn't a speedrun and just filling out the 250 boxes without understanding is not going to make them better.
My recommendation for you is to draw another 50 boxes and this time be sure to draw the lines out to find the vanishing points. Good luck!
Next Steps:
Draw another 50 Boxes with attention to drawing the lines out with either graphite pencil or colored pencil or pen. Remember to focus on ghosting lines as well and draw from the shoulder.
These are what I use when doing these exercises. They usually run somewhere in the middle of the price/quality range, and are often sold in sets of different line weights - remember that for the Drawabox lessons, we only really use the 0.5s, so try and find sets that sell only one size.
Alternatively, if at all possible, going to an art supply store and buying the pens in person is often better because they'll generally sell them individually and allow you to test them out before you buy (to weed out any duds).
