Hi NonSense, welcome to talkbass. Well tabs seem to be a taboo subject round these parts, so don't be surprised if you get people "all up in your heezy" if you request tabs or ask "how do I play this?" Just a warning. As for Schism, the tab at http://www.basstabarchive.com seems to be accurate.

I'm terrible at writing in tab, but that's it more or less.

that tab is correct...there are some variations but thats it.

BTW, mtv never played a live version of schism, or any other tool song where you can see them playing or anything like that. The video for it has no such scenes either.

Leave the guy alone, that was his first post.

That's the main riff and variation. I'm pretty sure the tab will be here on Talkbass, it's an exact mirror of The Bass Tab Archive
