What Does Low Levels Of Platelets And WBC In Blood Indicate?

I just got blood test back and My friend said it seems a little off.
WBC are 6.87
platelets 282
HGB are 13.3
RBC are 4.47
She says looking at the white count it seems alittle low and the platets the same. Is that true and what dose it mean if they are?

All parameters seems within normal range, who said these counts are low.

Normal ranges may vary but following are for your reference range(you can check them in her reports for reference range) :

WBC: 4000 - 10000/cu. mm
HgB: 12-16 g/dL (female) , 13-17 g/dl (male)
Platelet: 150-450 thous/ cu mm
RBC: 3.5-4.5 millions/cu mm (female), 4 - 5 millions/ cu. mm
