When you pick an arcane school you don't actually give up the other two schools you select, they just become your opposition schools, which makes it harder (but still possible) to cast spells from them:

A wizard that chooses to specialize in one school of magic must select two other schools as his opposition schools, representing knowledge sacrificed in one area of arcane lore to gain mastery in another. A wizard who prepares spells from his opposition schools must use two spell slots of that level to prepare the spell. For example, a wizard with evocation as an opposition school must expend two of his available 3rd-level spell slots to prepare a fireball. In addition, a specialist takes a –4 penalty on any skill checks made when crafting a magic item that has a spell from one of his opposition schools as a prerequisite. A universalist wizard can prepare spells from any school without restriction.

Sweet, thank you so much

Yes, a Tiny creature gets a +2 to AC.

Awesome, Thank you.

One more question if you don't mind... Not regarding familiars.

As a Wizard I choose Evocation as my specialty, and gave up Enchantment and Transmutation. Does this mean I can't cast spells from those schools that I gave up?

I see, but for being tiny he would also get the bonus for being hard to hit correct?
And I am third level currently. Thank for you letting me know about him having to be in the enemy square though I didn't realize that.

I was curious how Familiar's work. I'm new to pathfinder or any table top rpg's for that matter. But I have created a Wizard and I choose a flying squirrel for my Familiar.

My questions are:

Can your Familiar make attacks such as bite?

Can you make touch spell attacks though your Familiar? Example: My squirrel run's up behind a thief and jumps on to his back, then I cast Shocking Grasp, (Touch delivers 1d6/level electricity damage (max 5d6).) would that be or could that be delivered though my Familiar?
