Answer:

36/145, or (24.8%)

Step-by-step explanation:

Odds of picking second-year: 18/30 (60%)
Odds of picking first-year after removing one second-year from the set: 12/29 (40%)

Odds of picking second-year and then a first-year (given that the same second-year is still in the pool): (18/30)*(12/29) = 36/145 (24.8%).
