what would Q1 and Q3 mean? I can't answer these questions until I know what these columns represent.

Is Q1 the lowest grade given and Q3 the highest?

Hi elove! ;)

Q1 is the first quartile. It means that 25% scored lower than the given score.
Similarly Q3 is the 3rd quartile.
The median is the same as Q2.
