Probably, what would suffice for you is

?Global`*

That will list everything you have defined in the Global context
since the session began.

But if you were to do say the following

a=2;
Begin["test"]
bb = 3;
End
c=3;
?Global'*

you would see both a and c but not bb since bb has been defined
in the test context rather than the Global context.
