congratulations on finishing lesson 1 let's see what you've got here.
Super Imposed Lines
I see you've focused more on flow then on accuracy and that is really good, your precision will get better with pratice, the other thing I noticed is that some of the begining of those lines are Fraying, most of them are corect but try to put your pen in the correct initial spot everytime you make a line. https://drawabox.com/lesson/1/8/fraying
Ghosted Lines
The flow and the accuracy seams about right to who is starting but your lines are still a little curvy, that usually happens when you are not drawing from the shoulder pivot but instead from the wrist or the elbow, but some people seam to naturaly arch there lines a bit, you can check this in here: https://drawabox.com/lesson/1/9/arc
Ghosted Planes
The ghosted planes are hard in the beginning but it gets better trust me, I would just point out the same thing that I mentioned in the super imposed lines critic and some of your lines ware overshooting a bit, you seam to have solved this quite well in the second page but if you have any problem with this again check this: https://drawabox.com/lesson/1/9/lifthand
Tables of Planes
they are looking about right nothing much to say in here, just try too keep each ellipse within their own spaces.
Ellipses in Planes
Everything seams about right in here, good job.
Funnels
some of your ellipses aren't touching each other, try to keep them lines together https://drawabox.com/lesson/1/13/spacing
but overall your elipses look good and confident.
Plotted Perspective
everything is good I'd just try to keep the vertical lines as vertical as possible since it is a two point perspective exercise.
Rough Perspective
Again I would mention the overshooting and the arched lines, other then that any other problem with the perspective itself will be solved with time and practice, keep going!
Rotated boxes
Everything good, same problems with archiing lines as before but you did well.
Organic Perspective
Really good, not much to say around here.
Overall you did good and any of the mistakes you've committed in here until now are very common, just keep going to practicing the lesson 1 exercises as warm ups and keep going forwards, you are free to start the 250 boxes challenge if you haven't started already.

Next Steps:
sorry I forgot to mark it as complete, I'm still a bit unfamiliar with the critiquing system of the website but as I mentioned in the review, I feel like you are already free to go to the 250 boxes challenge if you didn't start it already.
The recommendation below is an advertisement. Most of the links here are part of Amazon's affiliate program (unless otherwise stated), which helps support this website. It's also more than that - it's a hand-picked recommendation of something I've used myself. If you're interested, here is a full list.
Faber Castell PITT Artist Pens
Like the Staedtlers, these also come in a set of multiple weights - the ones we use are F. One useful thing in these sets however (if you can't find the pens individually) is that some of the sets come with a brush pen (the B size). These can be helpful in filling out big black areas.
Still, I'd recommend buying these in person if you can, at a proper art supply store. They'll generally let you buy them individually, and also test them out beforehand to weed out any duds.
