Well, for a start, I think "square ABCD" is meant to imply that the points A, B, C, D go in that order round the perimeter, so C is diagonally opposite to A.
 
It seems I am not the worst circle drawer in the world!
 
Also, I think "circumscribed square" means the square is outside the circle (its sides are tangents to the circle). What you have drawn is the inscribed square.
