Saying "On the chat box" is acceptable.
True!
"In the chat box" and "on the chat box" are both acceptable depending on the context. There are three perceptions that can be considered: (1) box as real object (na pwede mong buksan and lagyan ng gamit sa loob) OR (2) box as a square na drawing on the surface of the computer screen OR (3) box as a square na drawing on the surface of the computer screen na may space where you can put things "in" it. Tutors' sentences could be acceptable or not depending on context based on these three perceptions.
Will the tutor get a markdown if he said, "Do not forget to ask questions to your counselor." instead of "Next, you should have counseling with a Japanese counselor!"?
No, minor comment only. The condition to get a YES in this checkpoint is: The tutor read the spiel for introducing RareJob counseling OR introduced RareJob counseling using his/her own words. Technically, the tutor still introduced counselling, however, the sentence should be phrased correctly as a recommendation.

Why is it acceptable to not give a reason for the quick feedback in JE, but not in BCC?
