Just trying to get a sense of what size I'd need. Is the fit of this jacket similar to the Theta AR? I generally wear a size medium but the Theta AR medium is HUGE on me.

Both the Theta AR and SV are cut to accommodate lots of layers underneath, and hence seem huge if you try them on with just a t-shirt. The Theta SV have a very slightly reduced torso volume than the AR, but still with plenty of room for insulation underneath.

The Theta SV should be sized about the same as the Theta AR - according to the Arcteryx website they are both cut for an athletic fit (small consolation to you I suppose). You might try ordering the SV a size smaller and see if it works for you - it is one of the longest shells that Arcteryx makes, so it might still work for you a size down. Good luck!
