Consider in the passive voice

Is it correct to use consider in the passive voice? Are consider and take into account interchangeable?

You need to consider everything when doing that. The most important thing wasn't considered which is why your plan didn't work.

Thanks

Consider is often used in the passive voice. [ Elvis is considered the King by many people. ] As for being interchangeable with 'take into account', the answer is probably most often yes , but it's unwise to make such a broad characterization.
