Default HELP!!! Are these compression readings correct?

I did a compression test on my B16A2 today. The readings go as followed:

#1: 180psi
#2: 180psi
#3: 180psi
#4: 180psi

I was told that if you have bad compression, the rings are most likely bad. Also my B16 burns oil(I posted a while ago about it). If someone could tell me if these readings are correct or not, that would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
