Dual class & XP excess

Hey guys!
I would like to know what happens to the XP excess if I dual class e.g. my fighter to a mage at level 9. Are the XP transfered to the mage XP pool, means that I should wait till I reach nearly level 10 with my fighter class to start with a higher mage level and can stay longer with my stronger level 9 fighter class or do I loose the XP, which means that I should dual instantly after I reached level 9?
Thanks!

Let's say you level Imoen up to a level 7 thief. Then you dual class her to a mage. She is now, for all intent and purpose, a level 1 mage until she hits level 8 mage, at that point and only that point does she regain her thief abilities. And she can no longer level up her thief class. She only gains experience as a mage at that point.
And if I understand correctly, if you get to lvl 7 as a thief, I cant get higher than lvl 33 as a mage? Anyway thx a ton for answering.
Mages only go up to level 31.
*By thieving skills I mean pick pocket, open locks, stealth, find traps, detect illusion, set trap; along with any weapon proficiencies you put towards as a thief and whatever Thac0 improvements you've gotten. The only thing you keep is the health you've acquired in those 7 levels. At least until level 8 as a mage when you get all this back.
Can you dual any class? Like Druid/Skald? Also when I read about a "class kit", it means like fighter and the other one being subclass?
There are quite a few limitations on class combinations. Like Paladins can never dual class (nor can they multi class, since only humans can be Paladins). Sorcerers cannot ever dual or multi either; although other mages freely can.
The limitations often have story or mythic explanations in PNP; but BG makes no effort to explain them. Illegal combinations will simply be greyed out.
Thx once again TJ for helping me out on this, even tho you kinda break my druid of having a musician that can shapeshift and dance on his own songs
This is their progression chart.
