Divination bad?HAH!
Think of the first thing that an enemy mage does after protections which are contigencies.He casts mislead or simulacrum or even project image.All those annoying spells can be dispelled instantly by true sight.
There is NO bad mage school.
@Glorfindel
Invocation/Evocation is ONE school not two.Same as Illusion/Phantasm and Enchantment/Charm

In BG rules the best bet for a specialist is IMHO the Necromancer.Admitedly he can't use illusions but with a full party Illusions are not REALLY important.Also you don't need to be evil for the Necromancer.A good alignment is possible but I would say that most non evil Necromancers are Neutral combination
As for the Invoker both in BG and in ADD is one of the most powerfull specialists along the conjurer.I would rate him 2 after the Necromancer
