If your tables are called the same thing as your radio buttons, then simply do

$sql = "INSERT INTO ".$_POST['level']." VALUES ( form values )";

You WILL need to do input validation if this is the case. Check that $_POST['level'] contains an acceptable value, e.g.

$acceptable_values = array("n00b", "experienced", "pro");
if(in_array($_POST['level'], $acceptable_values)){
  $sql = "INSERT INTO ".$_POST['level']." VALUES ( form values )";
  mysql_query($sql);
}else{
  throw_error("Invalid value");
}

mysql_query("INSERT INTO ".$_POST['level']." VALUES values");
