Description

In the show, Twilight didn’t go to magic school because of Spike, she applied because she wanted to learn more about magic. Spike was just the byproduct of her passing the entrance exam and hatching a dragon egg.

I found that entrance exam kinda silly because hatching an egg with magic is pretty advanced (especially for a foal) considering how most adult unicorns we see only ever use light and levitation. As far as I know, we’re never told how the school gets dragon eggs for its exams, so let’s just assume someone’s generous enough to donate their offspring for pony exams (either that or all of the parents of the eggs are dead). Since relations with the dragons were strained, no dragon eggs were being donated, so no egg hatching exam.
Instead, there’s standardized testing, essays, and demonstrations of magical aptitude. Twilight being the smart noodle she is, passed with flying colours and got her cutie mark that way.
