Differs for each country.

Seems like in Nigeria, BSc (hons) is awarded when the graduate finished the course of study at the specified time, 4years or 5years, based on the duration of course.
But ordinary BSc awarded, if the duration is exceeded ie for students with “extra year”

Hons. is for graduates who studied two courses.

Like History and International studies
Political science and public administration etc.

I hope I typed sense

Hons no spill over, 1st class and 2nd class.

Ordinary BSc means 3rd class or you stayed beyond the stipulated date of graduation due to spillovers.

There is a difference, hons is written on a certificate of a graduate that never carried a course during d study while hons is removed if the person had a carryover course while in skul

Hons for those who didn't carry a course...
Ordinary Bsc for those who had carryovers.

Late admission made me had 2 carryover in year 1, after that, no more. All went good.



For those who had no carryover from year 1 to finals would be given (hon) While those who had had one or two, won't be given (hon).

Hon or no Hon what matters is connection.

Our leaders have no hon, but they are ruling those with hon.

Neymar has no hon on his cert but he has money.

Nigeria university certificates are just like tissue paper in front of an American HR/ employers.
confirm... You nailed it.
Re: What's The Difference Between Bsc (Hons) And Ordinary Bsc? by Edojoma(m): 5:14pm On Jun 19, 2019
I will illustrate with engineering,, engineering in Nigeria universities is normally 5yrs,bt it's shouldn't exceed 7yr,,,if u can graduate within dis period, whatever d result, it goes with honour,,, but if u exceed d 7yrs ,,den no honour,, Dats y our HOD will advice us to get second class lower division or third class with honour,, rather malpractice n b given 3yrs suspension den graduate without honour....

Honour shows dat u completed d course within d stipulated yrs or period,,, it helps employers to no if u r dull or maybe dey may ask Wat happened dat made u graduate late..

That's why we can never grow.
Waiting this one won use Bsc hons or no hons do? That all the Nigerian schools can offer. That's why they can't discover or invent anything good for betterment of human race. They'll creat things that causes more isolation and separation.
Poor people....

I don't know how I found myself in this shithole settlement. Their mentality is almost the same.
Hmm
