Shifting points?

try pushing the shifter out of 2nd immediately before you press the clutch (i promise this is very easy and safe on the engine, just don't have your foot on the gas) and then as you're depressing the clutch the last bit slide it into 3rd, add gas, then take about a half second to let off the clutch...

it's weird how every manual trans has some sort of finicky nature between each gear compared to one another...
