Yep, that looks fine...good thing to do with a S/Cd motor.
You can go to autozone and buy a compression tester...pull your spark plug and crew in the line with gauge...and crank up the car. Some people just spin it over, but I like for the car to be running. Crank it up and go look at the gauge...note it, shut the car off and repeat with all cylinders. Be sure to put the plugs back in each one after your finished lol.

hm, its been a while since ive run a comp test, but dont you need to disable the fuel system in order to run this test? when you start the car w/o the plug in the combustion chamber, youre dumping air and fuel into the chamber and its not getting burned i was taught to pull the fuel system fuse, and crank the engine no more than 5-6 times so you dont burn up the starter. note the guage while cranking. its been a good year since ive done one, but thats what i seem to remember
DerekstangGt-
You are correct. I would never do a comp. test by starting and running the engine. For an injected engine, I would disable the inertia switch. Some people test with wot and some with a closed thottle. Cold engine and hot engine.

Those numbers look pretty good for a cold engine. They are also well within a 10% variance.
