    The terms used (high-spin and low-spin) doesn’t refer to a number of unpaired electrons but to different electron configuration in d-orbitals that you can get from the pairing energy. As for Fe3+’s unpaired electron here are the answers:

    Octahedral high-spin: 5 unpaired electrons

    Octahedral low-spin: 1 unpaired electron
