Anyone else who applied to Pitt NOT hear back yet?

and does the fact that people who applied after me got in already mean I'm screwed?  Thanks.

No, you're not the only one, although I didn't apply until 11/29.  (3.03/161)  I called yesterday, and they said that my app. had just gone into adcomm and that I should hear soon.  "Soon" is definitely not soon enough. 

It is good to hear that someone who went to Pitt undergrad had such a good experience that they would want to go to law school there.  I am very interested in the school, and I like Pittsburgh a lot, but it would be a big move for my wife and I, so I want to get as much anecdotal info as I can.

Is there a sense that a Pitt law degree is viewed favorably in Philadelphia, as well as in Pittsburgh? (How far-reaching is the rep?)

Boston,

 It seems like everyone who calls gets that same response about just going to Adcom.

I imagine it's about what your class ranking was when you graduate.  I'm sure it travels to Philly but Philly also has Penn, Villanova, Temple, Rutgers-Camden to pull from.  It definately is held in high regard in Pittsburgh as Duquesne is the only other school in the area.
