Spell Pool and Specialist bonus spells

[retaliation08]

Specialist Wizard takes levels in Mage of the Arcane order. He has bonus spell preparations that he can only use for his specialty school.


Calling a Spell: Calling a spell from the Spellpool can be done at any distance but requires the caster to have an open, unused spell slot of the appropriate level. Wizards preparing spells for the day decide at that time whether to leave some spell slots open.

Can he leave one or more of these specialist slots unprepared and call a spell from a different school?

EDIT: Additionally, can you call a spell from a prohibited school?

Yes, of course you can.

No, you cannot. There is no exception for prohibited spells, so you still cannot cast them.
