Yes. You can conveniently rule out those if the car starts right up during a jump.

Just curious, where did you connect the jump wires to your car?

Lets just say you've connected the negative jump wire (from donor car or another battery) straight to the engine metal then you've just improved the starter's ground connection and helped it to start.
