Thus, there are only 3 recommended students in U.A. But aren't there 20 students in Class 1-B too? How did the 20th student get in then? This is my spectulation, so after Yoarashi rejected U.A. recommendation, the 37th highest scoring student can replace the empty slot for Heroic Course.

Also, why would they replace someone who dropped out from the recommendation list with someone from the main exam list, instead of just promiting the fifth best person from the recommendation test? That's just common sense.
