Is this correct?
Glycolisis - 4 ATP, 2 net
Kreb Cycle - 6 ATP
Electron Transport Chain - 30 ATP

It can range from 26-38 ATP per mole of glucose through those cycles. It all depends on the conditions, but optimally in text books its in the neighborhood of about 38.

Not really. The Electron transport chain creates an electrostatic gradient, so the amount of ATP produced is dependent on the gradient ... so its not really a fixed number. The estimate for how much ATP is then produced is kinda controversial for that reason.

I believe it is 38 total ATP

It can be considered 36, because about 2 are used to move molecules across the membranes of the mitochondria.
