Looks good so far. It's generally recommended for pure wizards to maintain 400s/500s (major and minor elemental) at level in order to maximize bolt AS. 900s are important for defense later on, but you can afford to slack a bit on those in the lower levels. As we discussed previously, you'll probably want to go up to 913 and then hold off for a bit to focus on other priorities. Full 3x spell research is prohibitively expensive and there's not much benefit to it while leveling.

You're training air lore, which is a good choice for leveling. Also as we discussed earlier, 24 ranks is a good threshold to reach as it grants you a bit of extra disk space, a second off of haste, and unlocks Tonis bolt. Beyond that, most wizards don't find lores to be worth the cost while leveling. However, if you find yourself using major fire a lot as, for instance, a wizard in the Guardians of Sunfist might when fighting trolls, a few ranks in fire lore for the splash effect may be worthwhile.

On harness power, don't over-think it. Minimum 1x/maximum 2x, with the exact amount determined by your needs. Do you feel squeezed for mana and have the points to spare for 2x? Then go ahead! You can always hold off on further training once you're comfortable with your mana pool.
