Mk3 16v owners - where does your clutch bite?

... and I guess VR6 owners too as you guys have a hydraulic clutch...

Where does your clutch bite? Trying to suss out where a healthy clutch bites. Mine is at the bottom and I'm having trouble clearing gears but doesn't slip at all. Others say they're bites quite near the top...

however.. i'm getting the very occasional (once every two months?) thing were the car jumps a touch going into reverse even with the clutch fully down..
