Not all bad. Very much newfaggy, but still IMO you could end up taking something decent someday.
#1 (We normally # when we dump) Isn't bad, a bit boring, could use some cloud action
#2 Same. Shooting blue skies is usually brutal.
#3 I sort of like it actually. The problem you have is that you really underexposed. You need to learn some post processing so you can make this image pop.
#4 Nice light, and I like the balance in the composition, even if it is a bit boring.
#5 Way too underexposed. Get a tripod. Also your white balance is way too orange.
All in all, assuming you've only been doing this for lets say a month or so, not too bad.
PS - for #3 there isn't too much you can do here but smash that ISO up.
You were at 1/100 which is good - much slower and you'd get motion blur on buddy walking. You were at f5.6 - not a bad choice either, because you have enough DOF. So your only option is to up that ISO to 3200. And that isn't so bad. Your D3300 can take it, it's only 2 years old.

Thanks, glad I could help. Happy shooting.
