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.

Why not the 5th highest recommended student?

They were judged in two groups of six, and Inasa, Shouto and Juuzou were all in the same group. That would make Juuzou the 5th.
