I am finding the skills system vague. Are you allowed to pick skill outside of your class skills? I always thought you could but you did not get as much of a bonus.

Yes.
Any ranks placed in a class skill will receive a +3 bonus (not +3 ranks).
Any ranks placed in a non-class skill do not receive a bonus.
You can place ranks in any skill you wish.
Gravalpea's answer seems a little vague, so to clarify, if you put a rank into a class skill, you gain a +3 bonus to that skill.
If heal and survival are class skills and acrobatics is not and you put ranks into each you'll get...
Survival: 1 rank + 3 class bonus + WIS = total
Heal: 5 ranks + 3 class bonus + WIS = total
Acrobatics: 1 rank + DEX = Total
Thank you both.
