Default Soft clutch

My 92 civic cx has a really soft clutch, I heard most of Hondas clutch points are at all the way at the bottom, but mine is in the middle, is there something wrong?

Probly not. Maybe you have some sort of aftermarket clutch in there. One of my buddies bought an xtd stage 3 once and engagement was at almost top of the pedal until it started to grab. That was pretty shitty

If the pedal is truly soft, then start by bleeding the hydraulic system. If you get no joy, then replace the slave and master cylinders.

Honda pedals are usually soft.

The engagement point is adjustable. But...having the clutch engage right off the floor seems non-intelligent. Although some fools be likin that. Some fools even like a really stiff clutch that engages right off the floor. Worst people ever.

Having the engagement point in the middle or towards the top is normal in relation to how much freeplay the service manual specifies.
