We consider the shape of the curves of "Andreev" conductance of non-ballistic point contact NS heterosystems depending on the bias voltage at the contact. The obtained shape of those curves is caused by the contribution from the mechanism of coherent scattering by impurities which doubles the scattering cross section. The behavior of generalized and di?erential conductance is compared for ballistic and non-ballistic transport regimes. The criteria are considered allowing one to discriminate between those regimes with the corresponding conduction curves similar in appearance. The analysis is extended to the case of non-ballistic transport in NS point contacts with exotic superconductors, molybdenum carbide Mo-C and oxypnictide La[O$_{1-x}$F$_{x}$]FeAs from a group of iron-based superconductors.
