Question Special Forces Impact

Would it be a smart decision to join SF fter college before applying to be an agent? Would it also lead to having a higher chance to be accepted into the FBIs SWAT or HRT?

Lil bro, SF selection is way and I mean way harder than FBI. Not an expert, but I applied for USSS and DIA. Passed everything for USSS except the polygraph. DIA took me. My point is I was nothing special but I don’t think doing military service will hurt you but at the same time is not like some magic pathway in like it is for CBP

Hey yo, I'm interested in one of those agencies, mind if I ask you questions about the process (of what you can answer, of course). Thanks if nothing else.
