Hi there! I had a look through your work and put together some thoughts, so hopefully this helps!
Superimposed lines: You started off with a bit of fraying on both ends, but got better as you went along!
Ghosted lines: There were some lines that wobbled a bit, so try to keep in mind that confidence comes before accuracy, but otherwise, they look good.
Ghosted planes/ellipses: I can't really tell if you're adding points to ghost between for every line, if you aren't, you should be, it will help your accuracy! Other than that, keep trying to get the ellipses to touch every edge of the plane and you'll be acing it in no time!
Tables of ellipses: look good!
Funnels: Overall look good! When using these for warmups later, you should try them with increasing degrees of the ellipses, but for now this is fine.
Plotted perspective: done well!
Rough perspective: I'm not too sure if your lines are scratchy or if it's just a scanning issue. If they are, then definitely focus more on getting a smooth line, over an accurate one! Otherwise, they look good!
Rotated boxes and organic perspective: Both look good, congrats!
Next Steps:

Use these homework exercises as a 10-15 minute warmup when you start a new drawing session

Move on to the 250 box challenge!
The Science of Deciding What You Should Draw
Right from when students hit the 50% rule early on in Lesson 0, they ask the same question - "What am I supposed to draw?"
It's not magic. We're made to think that when someone just whips off interesting things to draw, that they're gifted in a way that we are not. The problem isn't that we don't have ideas - it's that the ideas we have are so vague, they feel like nothing at all. In this course, we're going to look at how we can explore, pursue, and develop those fuzzy notions into something more concrete.
