In covalent bonds, non-metals share electrons to attain full valence shells.

This non-metal usually forms 2 covalent bonds. This leads me to believe that it has 6 valence electrons to begin with and will take 2 more, one from each bonds. Such that it ends with a full valence shell of 8 electrons.

In covalent bonds, non-metals share electrons to attain full valence shells.

How many electrons are present in nonmetal in their outermost shell?

Most of the non-metals have 4 to 7 electrons in their valence shells. Formation of ions: Non-metals tend to accept electrons in their valence shell to form negatively charged ions called anions.
