The five magic isn't there anymore. They have become 4 and then a bonus-magic. I am not sure how much as I should explain about them as it takes some of the fun out of knowledge-quests that are so valued by Masters Adept and Leaders. To give you a hint of each of the four magic are :
Invocation - Dealing with bending the magic into the forms of the Elements and/or invoking the elements in the raw form and controlling the power by the will of the mage.
Transmutation - The altering of properties of object, that could both be the physical and magical properties.
Necromancy - Dealing with the negative magic.
Conjuration - Conjuring elements from other planes and (BONUS-MAGIC - BINDING) controlling them.
All mages are able to use some of each school. For instance Armor is a transmutation, yet it is a common spell. A note worth mentioning here is that all most all I speak with about this have deferent ideas how the words are put and to a certain degree what spell fits into what schools. So the above is not a complete guide but it is a start. What you should do is take a trip to the lyceum and speak with some Masters about this, it is much more rewarding RP and Masters really like to speak what THEY think is right.
Hoped this helped,
