I understand your desire but you are definitely not looking at the 25m line. Valuable training and experience can be gained in the big Army. The essence of soldiering is the same. Pay your dues in the infantry or Rangers. You'll be a better all around trooper and can be an asset to SF.
If you don't like life in a regular unit there's a real good chance you might not be as suited for SF as you think. Only time will tell.

Good advice.
All SF tasks are based off the basic's , Master the basic's of Shoot, Move, and Communicate.
The more advanced skills will then make more sence to you.
You will also appreciate getting a chance to lead a fire team in the infantry. Without that base of experience you will be behind your peer's that have.
Thats just a fact most 18X's find out in the Q-course.
Leadership is not common it has to be developed threw experience of doing leadership duties and threw watching other leaders at the next level over you.
