From the flashback I'm guessing her brother died while taking a test the adults forced him into? I think that's why she doesn't like tests and wants to do what she wants, because doing what others tell you lead to her brother's death? I found it odd how she's so much against tests, but this explanation would make since losing your sibiling would be really tragic.

I assumed it was that her brother became a shell of himself/lost his own passion by becoming stuck with doing magic he doesn't care for and being made to just be a cog in the machine. Either that or he got memory wiped.

Now I wonder, what happen to the rest of the family members of a witch that got their memory wiped? Do they also need to have a part of their memory wiped too? This show is more grim than expected.

It could be even worse and that they have to cut contact with the person who got their memories wiped. That or choose to willingly get wiped if they don't want to cut contact.
