Default Sign of clutch slip?

my car is been hesitating in 3 and 4th gear between 4k and 6k rpm. not sure what to make of it, could it be the clutch slipping. doesnt do it in 1st or 2nd gear so i doubt if its belt slip.

I doubt it is the clutch. Usually with a clutch slipping you see the RPMs continute to rise, but you don't accelerate

If you're not having the symptoms Zivman described, and no burning clutch smell, your clutch is not the problem.
