with the clutch applied?
also if you are getting on it and let put of it and while your rpms are going down it should and if you just tap the gas and at the same time put it into gear, it will drop into 4th and the same for all the rest of the gears

The trannies are synchronized and if you were at just the right rpm and pushed the shifter it could go into neutral.
