It does say something about the general mindset of MHA, especially early on, that nobody ever acknowledges the fact that Kirishima got second place or Uraraka got third.

The Entrance Exam itself goes largely unacknowledged. Bakugou getting to talk shit at the Sports Festival is the last time it's brought up at all.

But also yes, MHA's reoccurring motif of how endlessly chasing after the number one position is ultimately meaningless and actively harmful due to the focus on an arbitrary number instead of actually helping people, and how the focus on numbers dehumanizes Heroes via pedestals leaving Heroes burdened with impossible standards.

In order to pass the UA entrance exam you need a minimum of 30 points ( assuming everyone after 10th,who scored 56, scored 1 points less than the previous person). Considering Iida scored 9 rescue points while actively ignoring people in danger the UA entrance suddenly doesn't really seem all that challenging as long as you are a decent person.

In order to pass the UA entrance exam, you have to score within the top 36 of all general applicants, so if we take the remaining 26 points that you cut than yes, 30 points was the guaranteed cutoff this year.

(Side note: Iida was not ignoring people in danger, but he was prioritizing Villain Points over helping them. He left Uraraka because it would take too long to help her)

This is also what I mean when I talk about the Rescue Points in the context of the entrance exam being biased. Yes, there are many Quirks that are poorly suited to fighting robots. But theoretically anyone could pass by going around and helping people.

I’m not sure whether this is actually funny but I like how his little angry faces turned out.
