Asking too much of couselor

I agree with the above posters. The only thing I would add is that guidance counselors often know ahead of time that students may be asking for lots of the same information over and over again (as do teachers who are frequently asked to do letters of rec). Therefore, the smart, experienced ones save everything they do for a student so they can basically just “copy and paste.”

My son is in the same boat, btw. As were my other kids before him.

May I suggest a sweet, handwritten thank-you note and a SMALL gift at the end of the whole process?
