This is a tough poll, as I suspect if I included an "other" option, that would be pretty much everyone lol. So I'm going to limit it to a handful of very generic options, and select the one that best fits, and then a comment about how you'd change it to fit what you want (if applicable).
A note on the exhaustion option: Powers are broken down into a few levels of power. Based on your PC level, the levels of power would either not increase exhaustion at all, or they would raise by one category. The trade off is you get access to more powerful powers before a traditional mage would. For example, you could cast the equivalent of a 3rd level spell at 4th level, but it would raise your exhaustion by one.
Note on specialization: choose either object manipulation, or mind manipulation. OM is like telekinesis, levitation, cell repair, etc. MM is charm, fear, control, etc. Powers are like skill trees, with prerequisites. So before you can learn fly, you have to first learn levitate. And before teleport, you have to learn fly.
*Edit further clarification on specialization
