(2+30)(30-2+1)/2=464. You're good calculator! Though..

.. is not true, it's only until level 9. For reaching level 10-19 you get 6 points, for 20-29 - 7 points and so on. So, to collect 462 points you're to train until level 61 (and eat one horseshoe).
I've mistaken as well: 93th level grants 856 skill points, and it's enough to train only until 40th level, you have to eat 2 horseshoes to level Dark Magic to 41th level. I've occasionaly taken 5 skill points for reaching 1st level into account, lol.
I've used Microsoft Excel to calculate:
First page is to calculate points for leveling. The first column for numbers 2-100. It's experience level. The second is formula =5+INT(A1/10), copyed along column, it's points for reaching level. The third is formula =sum(B$1:B1), copyed along column. It's a points total for level.
Next page is to calculate points to train skill until some level (filled much the same).
