1. What are string theory's laws?
2. What are string theory's postulates?
3. What does string theory predict?
4. What are string theory's equations?
5. What does string theory model?
Answers:
1. There are none.
2. There are none.
3. Nothing in particular and everything in general. But not really.
4. There are none.
5. Nothing, except for the path of least action leading to tenure.
Contrast your answers to Farday's law, Ohm's law, Newton's laws.
Contrast your answer to Einstein's postualtes of SR.
Contrast your answer to Maxwell's Equations, Schrodinger's Equation, and Dirac's formulation of QM.
Contrast your answer to Feyman's "Many Paths" model.
And pretty soon you see that String Theory has nothing to do with physics.
