Asking too much of couselor

Recently, I just got done with college applications and am now on my way to apply for scholarships. Because most of the students here are in-state apply-ers with less complicated application processes, my counselor already did me a huge favor filling out three or four different forms and writing me a letter of rec. for my out-of-state applications.

With scholarships, the same counselor form (reporting GPA, class ranks) are also require. I’ll apply to many scholarships, each with their own different forms, and I feel bad for asking my counselor to repeatedly fill out different forms with the same infos. so many time. What’s worse is that my counselor is not someone I have known over the years because I’ve had to move during high school, and we had only known each other from the beginning the year. I also know that he has a billion of kids more to tend to.

So, in your opinion, am I asking too much of him? Should I just stay away from scholarships that require counselor forms? Does the counselor actually mind doing this?

Thanks
